Share:

The 70.2-metre Lürssen superyacht Saint Nicolas has been seen for the first time following an extensive year long refit at the Abeking & Rasmussen shipyard in Lemwerder, Germany.

The refit of Starfire was a collaborative effort between renowned design studios, Pascoli International, which oversaw her exterior design and America-based naval architecture firm Murray & Associates which were responsible for her swim platform.

During her refit, Starfire’s sleek lines and elegant profile were maintained, with a new paint job providing her with a modern aesthetic. Renowned for their attention to detail and sophisticated aesthetics, Patrick Knowles Design were entrusted with updating her interior design.

Starfire can accommodate up to 14 guests across a seven stateroom configuration, with her owner’s suite, saloon and study situated on the main deck and a VIP suite on the upper deck with an ensuite bathroom.

The remaining guest staterooms are located on the lower deck and consist of four doubles, alongside an additional staff stateroom. A central elevator runs from the upper deck to lower deck, providing easy access for guests onboard.

In terms of performance, Starfire is powered by twin Caterpillar engines, providing her with a top speed of 15.5 knots and a top speed of 12 knots.
